Crawl Space Encapsulation in Decatur, TN

Challenge

This Decatur, TN homeowner contacted Master Foundation & Crawl Space Repair after noticing musty odors and high humidity coming from the crawl space. When our team inspected the area, we found damp insulation, debris buildup, and visible mold along the block walls and wooden joists. The open vents and lack of a proper vapor barrier were allowing outside moisture to circulate freely, creating an unhealthy environment beneath the home and compromising indoor air quality.

Solution

Our crew started by removing all debris and insulation to create a clean workspace. We treated the crawl space using soda blasting to safely remove existing mold growth, then encapsulated the area with the CleanSpace® vapor barrier system to permanently seal out moisture. To maintain year-round dryness, we installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier and condensate pump with a dedicated electrical outlet and 50-amp subpanel for reliable operation.

The result is a clean, bright, and dry crawl space that protects the home from future humidity and mold issues. This is a lasting solution installed by the trusted experts at Master Foundation & Crawl Space Repair.
